*K.M. Greg Sarkissian Donates $10,000 to ANCA WR*
Glendale. CA - After joining over 1,400 community leaders and members,
activists and organizational supporters at the ANCA WR Grassroots
Conference and Annual Gala Banquet, President of Caldale Investment LLC
K.M. Greg Sarkissian extended a generous donation of $10,000 to the ANCA
WR. The donation was derived from the positive impression the weekend left
on Sarkissian after he witnessed first-hand the work of the ANCA WR in
educating, strengthening, and mobilizing its most important asset - the
community at large.
In an email to ANCA WR Chair Nora Hovsepian. Sarkissian noted `My heartfelt
congratulations to you, the Board of Directors, the staff and the
volunteers for organizing the Grassroots conference that will definitely
educate the community about civic leadership arising from grassroots
efforts - so dearly needed to mobilize the masses for the common cause. I
am truly humbled by the hard work and the dedication of all who worked so
selflessly to make this a memorable Thanksgiving weekend. It was amazing to
see 80% of the audience during the opening night, all young in their 20's
and 30's making the place buzzing with energy'.
In his closing statement, Sarkissian went on to state `As a token of my
appreciation for the work done and the cause for justice, I wish to
personally contribute to the efforts made by donating $10,000 to the ANCA
West Region'.
Sarkissian was visiting Los Angeles from Toronto, Canada to participate in
the ANCA Western Region Grassroots Weekend. Sarkissian's donation will
help partly fund programs and projects such as the ANCA WR Annual Advocacy
Day in Sacramento, the ANCA WR Internship Program, ANCA Townhalls, Hye
Votes and other educational and advocacy efforts
`On behalf of the ANCA WR I want to extend our heartfelt appreciation and
gratitude to Mr. Sarkissian for his kind generosity. His donation came as a
pleasant surprise after an incredible weekend of activism and will go a
long way in allowing us to continue to strengthen our efforts in advancing
the interests of the Armenian American community,' stated ANCA WR Chair
Nora Hovsepian. `As a kept promise throughout the years to all of our
donors, which now includes Mr. Sarkissian, we will stretch every dollar
donated in the name of Hye Tad, a cause that is near and dear to all our
hearts,' added Hovsepian.
